Haley Reinhart Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You told me everything I wish I never knew
Now I can't get past the truth
Now I just wish I could back to loving you
Getting back to loving you
There's a right time, and a wrong time
Whenever the love goes wrong
But you can't lie, so I can't hide
Maybe this is

When I'm calling you a liar

I just wish you were
When I'm calling you a liar
Please, say what you don't know
It could never hurt
When I'm calling you a liar!
When I'm calling you a liar!
You gave me chills with nothing to hate

Just a perfect bitter taste!
Wish I was still in the dark
